If you want a dataframe rather than a matrix, I often use the as.data.frame method for table objects. See ?table for the documentation. You can even nicely name the dimensions and frequency.
OBJECT <- sample(4, 20, TRUE) as.data.frame(table(var1 = OBJECT), responseName = 'frequency') Jason -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Dennis Fisher Sent: Sunday, October 06, 2013 10:31 AM To: r-h...@stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] Transposing the output of 'table' R 3.0.1 OS X Colleagues, If I execute the command: table(OBJECT) the output might look like: 1 2 25 336 I would like it to appear as: 1 25 2 336 I can accomplish this with: TABLE <- table(OBJECT) data.frame(names(TABLE), as.numeric(TABLE)) However, I bet that a more clever approach exists? Any takers?
